Fall is here!

I am currently bundled up in a coat and wishing I had a scarf today! So cold out! Absolutely loving it!!! Trav and I bought pumpkins on Friday evening at our church and we plan on decorating tomorrow night so that on Halloween we can have glowing jack-o'-lanterns on our front porch! :)

Tonight we have BSF- missed last week after exhausted from vacationing in the Smokey Mountains (pics soon). BSF is a worldwide bible study and this year is is over Genesis. I have never participated in BSF and it's a great study- if you have a BSF group near you I highly recommend. There are about 350 ladies that meet at our location and it's broken down into smaller groups by age, women from all denominations (this is never brought up)- it's strictly reading the scripture.

I have read Genesis many times in the past, but this time I am learning things I have never caught before. I feel like life just flies by and I am being taught to just stop and enjoy the small things in life and to make spending time with God a priority. Learning some awesome things. Truly awe-inspiring.

This past weekend we had the Parent's Anonymous second annual Oktoberfest. Such a fun event benefiting PA, which is a non-profit organization that works to put an end to child abuse. Really fun night with friends!!! (again pics soon) :)

Looking forward to Halloween on Wednesday! Going to stay in, cook fun foods and hand out candy!

Leaving you with a pic for today (today is Bob Ross' 70th birthday haha)

DDS, Tucket, San Fran, Napa :)

OK clearly this blog is not a daily or even a monthly occurance. Need to get better at blogging life. Enjoy looking back and seeing where life has led me.

Back in T-town! Life has been so busy getting settled in- loving every minute! Our jobs are going great- Trav loves being dentist and I got a great job at TJC as an academic advisor for the nursing and health science programs. We are livin' it up in the azalea district. Love all the older homes, nearby park and charming little brick streets.



Being close to family again has been great! Have been spending time with everyone and am loving it. We even try to ride our bikes to Nano's once in awhile :)

Graduation was excellent! So proud of my sweet Dr. Heaton!






Then we had a Nantucket celebration- 2012 Hammhealers trip! (LOVE my in-laws...how many people can say that?!)




Then we escaped to San Francisco & Napa for Murat's 30th surprise celebration!

 

Good times!!! Next up- Smokey Mountains of TN!! :)
